The Dhaka Times Desk Currently desktop or laptop is not required. You can easily watch YouTube videos on your smartphone. But this video can spell your doom.

A warning about this has been published in the media. Researchers said that the voice hidden inside the YouTube video can easily grab information from nearby smartphones without your knowledge!
In this regard, US Georgetown University professor Mika Sher said, voice recognition for services like Google Now or Apple Siri has quickly become popular. However, these are currently making it easier to hack devices.
Citing researcher Sher, the technology-related website PCWorld wrote in a report that, 'It is not the case that information is stolen from nearby phones while watching videos on YouTube. It is actually a numbers game.
It has been said that if 1 million people watch a video with a hidden message, 10,000 of them have a phone nearby. If 5000 of these phones are loaded with links containing malware, then those phones may come under the control of hackers. If a hacker knows how to get into or out of a phone using voice recognition software, they will be able to create voice commands that are impossible for a human to decipher.
This problem means that voice recognition software manufacturers must add filters to avoid this risk. In order to understand the difference between human and computer generated words. So be careful about using YouTube videos on mobile.
